Alright, so 3 weeks before the wedding I decided not to wear sunscreen outside wrong move. I was completely fried and now am grossly peeling. So the wedding is near and I need to get some sort of tan. I was debating on going to a tanning salon or going to Purple Butterfly and have a spray tan. I am afraid to go in a tanning bed because I had a experience with one in HS and I was blistered when I came out. Any suggestions?

Re: Tan or not to tan that is the question......
I would say if you are going to do the tanning bed.........start out really slow.......3-5 minutes for like the first week and them work up from there........I would think that 3 weeks is enough time to get some sort of base though........They say tan two days in a row and then take one day off and then two day........and so on........

id say exfoliate first since youre peeling, try to get as much of that off. then go to a tanning salon and if youre worried start with a short session and work up. if youre super concerned, try spray tanning. though i prefer tanning beds.

i just went to beach bum tanning.. a little $$ but i went for the most expensive bed.. stayed in there for 10 minutes and no burning whatsoever.. its pricier than the others but i wanted to get brown not burnt and this is the bed they suggested... plus if you go on sundays after 5pm and buy something for like $1 you tan for free(catch is you have to have bought a pkg with them first)
